METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR VIDEO ENCODING AND DECODING GEOMETRICALLY PARTITIONED SUPER BLOCKS

摘要

There are provided methods and apparatus for video encoding and decoding geometrically partitioned super blocks. An apparatus includes an encoder for encoding image data for at least a portion of a picture. The image data is formed by a geometric partitioning that applies geometric partitions to picture block partitions. The picture block partitions are obtained from at least one of top-down partitioning and bottom-up tree joining.
